If you begin with the basic equation of a vertical parabola: y-k=a(x-h)^2, where (h,k) is the vertex, then that equation, when the vertex is (-3,-2), is
y + 2 = a (x + 3)^2. If we solve this for y, we get
y = a(x+3)^2 - 2. Thus, eliminate answers A and D. That leaves B, since B correctly shows (x+3)^2.
Answer:
40% OR -1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
It could be 40% as all the other numbers are in fraction form while this one is written as a percent.
It could also be -1/4 because that is the only negative number.
Volume of a sphere: V=(4/3)πr³
V1=(4/3)π10³
V2=(4/3)π5³
difference: (4/3)π10³-(4/3)π5³=(4/3)π875=3665
the answer is B.<span />
Total flour used = Sum of all the cups
Total = 2 cups + 0.5 cups + 1.75 cups
= 4.25 cups of flour
4.25 cups of flour was used.
Hope this explains it.
